Long after Ankit had gone, sanyukta sat in her cabin checking the details of those 350 people and found them extremely perfect. Meanwhile, done with sanyukta's silence, raghu spoke "What's the need for meeting sanyukta? Just fire them all." raghu said.

"Fire them all??" Sanyukta looked at raghu rather astonished "fire them all??"

Raghu spoke again "I mean, you said right? To fire who ever I find suspicious." Sanyukta was even more shocked with raghu's reply.

"True to your heart, did you seriously find these people suspicious?" she lifted up the file and slammed it on the table. Raghu looked up at her terrified.

"But ankit siad so..." raghu tried to defend himself

"Ankit?" sanyukta let out a sarcastic laugh and said "since when did you put your faith in ankit??" she asked and continued "for godsake raghu open your eyes. These three hundred and fifty people are those who we recruited the very first day we walked in to Delhi. They never left us, not when we sank into losses. I have full faith in them raghu, what wrong are you seeing in them?"

"Ankit..." raghu started to say something but sanyukta cut his words off

"Ankit Ankit Ankit! To hell with Ankit. What's wrong with you raghu, chanting Ankit Ankit Ankit right from the morning? " sanyukta thundered and raghu fell silent. Sanyukta closed her eyes and slumped back in her chair.

There was a pregnant silence. Sanyukta had her eyes closed and few frown lines on her forehead, raghu was watching her intently and was startled as she spoke suddenly.

"Arrange a meeting at 6 o' clock in the morning with these three hundred and fifty people." Her voice was steady, raghu was listening, she still had her eyes closed while she continued "hold the meeting in auditorium on 6th floor instead of the conference hall, don't tag ankit. Make sure all the jammers are deactivated. Install a CCTV circuit in the auditorium. No one must know that jammers aren't working and that they were under surveillance"

Raghu waited for a while. He never counter questioned he simply nodded and left. Rest of the day, raghu was busy doing what ever sanyukta said wondereing what she was up to now.

As the day grew old to a young night raghu walked into sanyukta's cabin ""I'm done. Shall we inform them now?" he asked.

"No. I'll mail them personally"

"About meeting?"

Sanyukta nodded. "Alright" Raghu said and helped her to her apartment. It was just 8 in the evening and as they entered sanyukta's flat, they found randhir in the living room working on his laptop. Randhir suddenly looked at them as they both entered in.

Raghu looked at him and then left sanyukta at the door "ugh! I... I got a call I need to go bye sanyukta." He said

"Arrey, steer me in" sanyukta was shouting but raghu left by that time. "This guy!" sanyukta shook his head and began to struggle herself to steer her wheel chair in, but the small front wheel seemed struck and she was struggling a lot but never uttered a word to randhir asking him to help.

Randhir stared at her for a while, shook his head, put his laptop aside and stood up. He walked up to her. She then stopped struggling with her wheel chair and looked at him. With one swift moment randhir lifted her up. Sanyukta said nothing, so did randhir. It was ages that they were so close and his act just resurrected the tacitile memories that were buried deep in the layers of their ego, pain and struggles. The evedience was nothing but their supple cheeks turned pink in shade. Both of their cheeks. However they both avoided meeting each other eyes.
